LYRICS:

I'm like a wildcat at midnight
I'm like a stick of dynamite
Evil senses taking over me
Gonna let the action steal the night
     
Turn up the heat
Turn down the lights (action, action)
Turn up the heat
Baby go all night
     
Turn on the action
Turn on the night
Turn on the action
Turn on the night
     
I'm looking over my shoulder
I'm running reckless through the night
Forever young not getting older
Satisfaction guaranteed tonight
     
Turn up the heat
Turn down the lights (action, action)
Turn up the heat
Baby go all night
     
Turn on the action
Turn on the night
Turn on the action
Turn on the night
